An excellent follow-on day for those who have already taken part in a beginners’ glassblowing class, providing an opportunity to consolidate skills learned in the previous session. On this second day of glassblowing, you will be making a tumbler, bowl and a plate. This course is a level up, and spinning out a plate (how windows were made in the 16th century) is both fascinating and exciting. You will gain further experience in gathering, handling and forming hot glass and we will focus on the development of key skills.

IMPORTANT! Due to the cooling down processes involved with all glassmaking it is not possible for students to take work home on the day it is made. Work needs to cool slowly overnight and may be collected at a later time by arrangement, or alternatively, we can package and post work on for an additional postal fee of £20 per box.
